This week, we're highlighting the Snapshot tool! Did you know the Snapshot tool allows you to copy text, images, or vector graphics and paste them as new vector images? You may be asking yourself, "Is the Snapshot tool different than copying/pasting?" And the answer is yes! The Snapshot tool allows you to retain the vector…
Is there a shortcut to colorize snapshots? I use the snapshot tool quite a bit to take a snip of something and then overlay on another drawing. After pasting that snapshot, I will typically right-click and chose "Change Color" and select colorize and have it changed to red so I can distinguish from the snapshot and the…
Is there a way to crop a snapshot to remove unwanted content without flattening, or taking a new snapshot? My use case is to use a single snapshot multiple times, then crop each of them once pasted and placed in position. I appreciate i may need to just take multiple snapshots, however this would mean i am required to have…
I am referring to this. When Bluebeam Revu x64 is open, and I've not noticed it before, this pops up when I press the screenshot button. That would be fine except it removes the screenshot data if I wait too long. It also doesn't let me paste into other applications. I would prefer to disable this feature completely. I've…
We would like to preset the Mask colour of a symbol so that this doesn't need to be edited afterwards for every snapshot while creating a library from a PDF with all the symbols on a white background. It is a lot of repetative work to change the colour White of every symbol to transparant. Also it would be great to have a…
When I attach a capture photo to a markup (generally a photo of an on site condition located on the drawings) the capture pop-up shows up. This is great, but it would be nice if this pop-up acted like a typical Microsoft Window. I would like it to have features such as, moving to another screen, maximizing or minimizing,…
When you need to take a snap of a portion of a pdf to prepare a new pdf document then it is always better to use the tool Snapshot (keyboard shortcut G) rather than taking Printscreen. By this we can avoid blurring of the snap / image.
Is there a way to select specifically objects instead of creating Poly Shapes in Revu to delete page content? If there's not, Bluebeam should think about selecting lines in the same way you can Adobe to delete content. This would help me keep text in the middle of a line I may be trying to delete, or vice versa. Only way…

My issue is a question/idea but is it currently possible to save/reuse selected Page Regions made when creating new Thumbnail Page Labels or in Bookmarks. We use the Page Labels/Bookmarks 'Page Region' feature to extract out drawing title block information, but I have to redo the same region selections for each new package…
Looking for a good way to migrate data stored in BlueBeam Cloud to Microsoft SharePoint site without losing any of the meta data along the way.
Hello all, New to Revu.. I've set the scale on the measurement tool, but when I measure a known size on the drawing, it is showing a smaller size. I've noticed that the page size of the plan is 8.5x11. It's the only difference I've seen from previous plans I've recently done without a problem. Can you advise what I need to…
Does anyone know how to print a markup summary to PDF in column form, but not have the (1) designation on any of the selected columns?
I am trying to figure out if there's a way to take a comment list and use the list to mark-up plans. We have a standard list in Word that has about 100 comments. I want to take the list and allow the use of one item at a time when marking up a plan. For example, one of the comments could say, "Provide rating where adjacent…
Hello everyone. To day I am posing a question that I hope someone can assist me with. In short what I want is to know if Bluebeam is capable of opening a File (any type at all) from a CAD program such as Microstation or AutoCad, and recognize a line as an actual line, instead of just as an image (PDF)? A bit of background:…
Now is a good time to "Revu" your progress on 2025 Bluebeam goals. Whether it be workflow review, tool improvements, or simply existing markup edits to align with the latest company standards we all could use a little reminder to look back and ahead in 2025! Feeling energized dialing back to the beginning of Q1 when I…
I have a client that would like to use the functions and features found in the Prime Portal. Namely reactivating a finished Session. Is this in the org. admin. portal? If so how is it accessed? Thank you Vinnie Stamato
can we please make sure to keep the add measurements , scaling and mark up tools to the iPad version of BlueBeam.
One part question one part idea for y'all today. My office uses studio session extensively to redline and coordinate with several different consultant teams at once. A PM will have to manage 2-7 Bluebeam sessions at once, one per project site. Our field reps will be in and out of 20-40 sessions per week. The firm standard…
